One key feature of the multi-orbital superconducting Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ is the presence of nodal or near-nodal quasiparticle excitations revealed in a wide variety of experiments. Typically, a nodal gap structure in a two-dimensional model would…
Triplet superconductivity in Sr_2RuO_4 is investigated with main interest on its internal degree of freedom. We perform a microscopic calculation to investigate how the chiral state d(k) = (k_x \pm ik_y)z is realized among the underlying…
Although correlated electronic-structure calculations explain very well the normal state of Sr$_2$RuO$_4$, its superconducting symmetry is still unknown. Here we construct the spin and charge fluctuation pairing interactions based on its…
The symmetry of the superconducting condensate in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ remains controversial after nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments recently overturned the dominant chiral $p$-wave paradigm. Several theoretical proposals have been put…
Due to the presence of a nontrivial three-dimensional spin-orbital entanglement, Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ may be a time-reversal invariant nematic $p$-wave superconductor with coexisting in-plane and out-of-plane pairings. Here we discuss various…
There is strong experimental evidence that the superconductor Sr2RuO4 has a chiral p-wave order parameter. This symmetry does not require that the associated gap has nodes, yet specific heat, ultrasound and thermal conductivity measurements…
We use functional renormalization group method to study a three-orbital model for superconducting Sr$_2$RuO$_4$. Although the pairing symmetry is found to be chiral $p$-wave, the atomic spin-orbit coupling induces near-nodes for…
The quasi-2D metal Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ is one of the best characterized unconventional superconductors, yet the nature of its superconducting order parameter is still highly debated. This information is crucial to determine the pairing mechanism…
The unconventional superconductivity in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ continues to attract considerable interest. While many measurements can be interpreted on the basis of chiral $p$-wave pairing with intriguing topological character, a number of…
The superconducting pairing in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ is widely considered to be chiral $p$-wave with $\vec{d}_{\boldsymbol k} \sim (k_x + ik_y)\hat{z}$, which belongs to the $E_u$ representation of the crystalline $D_{4h}$ group. However, this…
Recent experiments on Sr_2RuO_4 have indicated the presence of linear nodes in the superconducting order parameter. Among the possible spin triplet states, 2D p-wave superconductivity with E_u symmetry appears to be inconsistent with the…
Soon after the discovery of superconductivity in Sr2RuO4 (SRO) in 1994, it was conjectured that its order parameter (OP) has a form similar to that realized in the superfluid He-3, namely, odd parity and spin triplet. The chiral p-wave…
Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ has stood as the leading candidate for a spin-triplet superconductor for 26 years. Recent NMR experiments have cast doubt on this candidacy, however, and it is difficult to find a theory of superconductivity that is consistent…
The nature of the Cooper pairing in the paradigmatic unconventional superconductor Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ is an outstanding puzzle in condensed matter physics. Despite the tremendous efforts made in the past twenty-seven years, neither the pairing…
We have analyzed heat capacity and thermal conductivity measurements of Sr2RuO4 in the normal and superconducting state and come to the conclusion that an order parameter with nodal lines on the Fermi surface is required to account for the…
Determination of the orbital symmetry of a state in spin triplet Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ superconductor is a challenge of considerable importance. Most of the experiments show that the chiral state of the $\hat{z} (k_x \pm ik_y)$ type is realized and…
In conventional and high transition temperature copper oxide and iron pnictide superconductors, the Cooper pairs all have even parity. As a rare exception, Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ is the first prime candidate for topological chiral p-wave…

The superconducting symmetry of Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ remains a puzzle. Time-reversal symmetry breaking $d_{x^2-y^2} + ig_{xy(x^2-y^2)}$ pairing has been proposed for reconciling multiple key experiments. However, its stability remains unclear. In…
